Now I know I have possibly promoted this thing to death what with my signature, VMs and the 30 or so PMs I sent out the other day, but in absence of an Easter Get-Together I felt I needed to spread the word a little more. :)
So yeah - just to let you guys know that the Egg Swap event from the New Years Get-Together is returning on Friday for another run. It was a lot of fun last time so I'm hoping to get even more people involved this time around.
The essential idea to Egg Swap, if you don't know already, is that everyone breeds one Pokémon egg (it can be anything you like so long as it's legitimate), and then trade it with as many people as possible before the event ends. After the event ends, you hatch the egg and tell us what you've got. It's one point per swap, and you both have to have swapped with someone else before you can swap again.
There's (hopefully) some prizes up for grabs in the form of emblems, plus you get a brand new Pokémon for Easter. It could be something good (I remember a few shinies went round last time) or something not so good (I ended up with a Zubat - thanks guys :P ).
The event will be running over the Easter weekend in the Trade Corner forum and will finish on Monday (haven't decided what time yet). You can sign up at any point and you can start to swap as soon as you have your participant number. So the quicker you sign up, the more swaps you can get in. ^^
(I've also only just realised you can infect Eggs with Pokérus now. Just sayin'.)
So yeah - even if you're not going for the points, just come along for a couple o' swaps. Everyone gets a participation emblem anyways. :)
Also - special thanks to Forever for helping out (pulling all the strings, references, being the insider, the bribes, corruption, exploitation, etc. etc. etc.).
Oh yes - this time you need a Generation V cartridge (Black & White) to play. But you're certainly not restricted to just Unova Pokémon! :mudkip^_^:
